Canberra-based startup Turium.Ai and professional services partner Xaana.Ai have officially launched what has been described as the world’s first human artificial intelligence (AI) twin.
The product – called Zebra – builds on Xaana.Ai’s experience with AI products that are used by some of the world’s largest companies, public sector and defence organisations.
The company says Zebra is meticulously engineered to bridge the critical gaps in existing AI solutions and to pave a new way forward in personalised, secure and limitless enterprise AI applications. It describes Zebra as being tailored for the individual, and like having someone who understands their roles and responsibilities and gives them insights that matter to them.
Founder and AGI developer of Turium.Ai and Xaana.Ai Dan Saldi told Region that, described simply, from the beginning of when computers were developed, AI was a code.
“But now that code has evolved and has more smartness and intelligence and, we call that intelligence ‘artificial’ because it’s not human.”
“It can process vast amounts of data in milliseconds compared to what our brain processes, that’s why AI is now changing the world. It’s probably the biggest innovation after electricity – it is changing human lives now,” he said.
Mr Saldi said the DNA of every human is unique, like the stripes of a zebra.
“AI, despite its formidable power, is still very generic in nature,” he said.
“At Turium, we shatter that mould. We haven’t just designed another generative AI application for businesses, we’ve built your AI. It’s not just powerful, it’s personal and secure, engineered with the full power of Turium Enterprise AI, yet fine-tuned exclusively for you, your role, and your voice.”
“Zebra is the world’s first human AI twin. What does that mean? It will work with humans, it will become your own AI,” he added.
“We call it a large language model that is tailored to your own DNA. So, it understands who you are, what you do, where you work, your company domain you work in, it gathers all that information and processes the results of accuracy of what you need AI to do much better than any other models in the world.
“I don’t think this approach has been taken before,” he said. “This is the first time we’re building a data storage for individuals. It’s almost like having your own passport – you will have your own Zebra ID, which will create your own unique code which will help you improve using AI according to who you are.
“The applications are limitless, I think. You can definitely increase productivity at work, helping you with automating or optimising your tasks, your workflows, your decision-making, solving your complex problems at work.”
Xaana was established in 2019 when it partnered with Microsoft, AWS, Google and SAP to start its professional services arm. In 2023, Turium was started to develop the Enigma, Algoreus and Zebra AI products. The company has more than 150 employees, most of whom are developers, programmers and architects.
Xaana.Ai already has more than 150 customers for Enigma and Algoreus, including Shell, Wesfarmers, Department of Health, Austrade, Defence, Maritime Safety Authority, Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) and Air Services Australia.
And Zebra has already been demonstrated to a number of potential customers with positive responses, including Home Affairs, Defence and Services Australia.
